In an interaction with Empire, Jon Wright said: “A lot of this film is about a very urban, liberal, progressive couple getting back in touch with their primal, animal selves — this bestial side again.

“The woods at the bottom of the garden, that’s where Mother Nature lives, metaphorically. It’s like they’re going back to their ancestors in a way. And they’re certainly going back in time in a sense, going back to a place that’s much less built up and much wilder than where they start the film.”

Here’s everything we know so far about Unwelcome ahead of its release.

Based on an Irish superstition, an expecting couple escapes the hustle and bustle of the city and settles in the tranquil scenery of rural Ireland.

The heavily pregnant Maya is before long targeted by the trolls in the wake of forgetting to feed them – in this way, when the Redcaps come out when called to help souls in need of rescue, there is always a price to pay for their aid.
